    3. I can't find any descendants of Winslow. He may have had children we do not know about though. I also can only find Winslow as a child of Percy. There was also a daughter who died as a child. I will assist Gil in trying to find a family member who might want the photograph. I would really like to see the picture scanned in so I can put it in the database. Percy was well known on the Cranberry Isles. Here is a note I have about him and Winslow. "For many years Percy served as skipper, gardener and caretaker for the Edgar Morseman family on Great Cranberry Island, Maine. He also spent winters fishing for lobster with his son, Winslow." It will be nice to have his picture as part of the Bunker family history and the history of the Cranberry Isles. Such a great find and thanks for contacting us about this.
